How timely babyjane.
I was having one of 'those' thinking sessions on Monday - how to give my feminine side a boost? Every day at work, my logical, practical, get-stuff-done side is catered for but what about the other parts of me? I was feeling particularly out of sorts so I googled 'how to boost your feminine side' and had fun reading the results. Some of them were a bit too whacky, even for me, but some of the suggestions seemed to hit the spot. So now I'm on a mission

I decided to ditch jeans and jeggings during this week to see if I felt better in myself. What a week to pick... it's been nippy and wet!! As I type, I'm wearing a red woolen skirt (short!!!), black opaque tights and long boots and I seem to be walking taller.
Yesterday, even though I was working from home, I wore a skirt and I was fully made up too. Nobody to see this but me - and the practice nurse I saw when I went for my smear test
This change is not for hubby, colleagues etc. It's for me

I'm digging pretty things out of the wardrobe that haven't seen the light of day for ages.
I'm enjoying it so much I bought a new skirt and now I'm choosing new shoes to go with it... not killer heels but pretty.
I've even booked myself in for a make-up lesson and plan to go accessory shopping too.
The other things that make me feel good are plants and baking! I bought myself some flowers and some veggie seeds. The seeds are now in a little windowsill propagator just waiting to germinate and the flowers are in a vase where I can see them when I'm home.
